Empuriabrava, which is part of the municipality of Castelló d'Empúries has a population of approximately 7.900 people and is considered one of the most exclusive real estate locations in the area. Its superb reputation as a tourist destination throughout Europe is due, amongst other factors, to its mild Mediterranean climate, its exquisite gastronomy and its beautiful beaches. The latter stretch along the Gulf of Roses, inviting for relaxing sunset strolls not far from your new villa, flat or holiday home.

The most outstanding feature of Empuriabrava is the local marina, the largest in Europe with space for up to 5.000 boats. In addition, a system of artificial canals surrounded by palm trees provides direct access to the water and mooring for numerous plots. Empuriabrava, with its ambience similar to that of the Catalan Venice offers water sports enthusiasts a high quality service, including 24-hour surveillance, access to real-time weather information, Wi-Fi and a large car park. For those who enjoy sea crossings, this port is the ideal departure point for destinations such as the Balearic Islands or the Côte d'Azur. In addition, if you wish to take up water sports, you can opt for courses in sailing courses or explore the canals of Empuriabrava on a guided boat trip. Fans of surfing or kite will also find here the ideal conditions to practice their favourite sports.

The real estate offer in Empuriabrava is varied and ranges from villas and houses to flats and other real estate. Water sports enthusiasts can find properties with their own mooring, while properties closer to the south-eastern shore have the advantage of being accessible for motor and sailing boats, with a quick exit to the Mediterranean. On the other hand, some properties in more remote areas are only accessible by flat-bottomed boats due to the height of the bridges.

Among the most sought-after properties are houses and flats located directly on the canal, which offer unrivalled views of boat traffic and a very central location. It is also possible to find waterfront properties of the Costa Brava with panoramic views of the Mediterranean and spectacular sunsets.

In addition, in the surroundings of Empuriabrava and in the nearby villages, it is possible to buy rural properties, spacious villas and fincas, which will allow you to enjoy the tranquillity of the Catalan countryside and to admire the majestic peaks of the Pyrenees. Engel & Völkers will help you find the property that best suits your needs.
